[quote=Anonymous]To play devil's advocate, I'd like to point out that the messy delays trying to determine who won FL in 2000 was probably a very minor inconvenience compared to the chaos that could arise figuring out who actually had the higher vote in a close national election. Given that nowhere near 100% of voters take part in the election, the winner is a quirk of turnout rather than a real indication of the will of the people, so having a process that gives a definite result may be more important than determining who had the higher popular vote. But I still resent the way Bush used the courts to get a result that he knew was opposite to the popular vote, especially since he then went on to act as though he had a mandate![/quote]
